About This Quiz
Mercy stems from the Medieval Latin merced-, merces-, which translates to "price paid" or "wages." When it comes to godly benevolence, though, it doesn't usually arrive in the form of doling out checks. Instead, it usually means the offering of forgiveness, kindness or some other form of generosity to followers. While the concept of a merciful God exists in several religions like Hinduism, Christianity, Islam and Judaism, some might dispute the clemency of the likes of Christ or Allah. How merciful are they, really, if you still get banished to hell or Jahannam for all eternity? That's up for some debate.Â
Other deity-like figures, including Buddha, do not make people face sliced fingers, stoning or life in hell in punishment for their lack of faith or other "sins." Along with the likes of Jainism and Hinduism, Buddhism essentially teaches that karma will take care of things on its own.
So, what type of god will you be? Will you stone and smite or absolve and pardon? Unless you suddenly become a god sometime soon, the only way to know for sure is to take the following quiz. Let's pray you don't struggle too much to accept your divine destiny!Â
